Around the world, the latest show from Brodas Bros, is an initiative to show audiences the experiences and stories that the Catalan urban dance company has been collecting during their international tours. These experiences are expressed through futuristic urban dance journeys that take on a special dimension, combined with the latest technology in lights, lasers, interactive screenings and mappings.
What happens at night remains in the night... That is how Sol Picó describes this show. With a nod to the Avinguda del Paral·lel. The artist and choreographer draws her inspiration from the genre of revues, which made Avinguda del Paral·lel so popular at that time, and included characteristics that still seem unconventional today, such as interdisciplinarity, breaking away from traditional morals and expressing social transformations.
This project takes its inspiration from Antonio Canova's neo-classical sculpture The Three Graces, a universal benchmark for beauty, proportions and measure. Four dancers on stage construct a game between reality and fiction that questions the canons of beauty. Following the classical music scores of Vivaldi and Strauss and the electronica and contemporary music of Matmos and Koudlam, Graces carves out a sculptural pop work that investigates the different shades of an insolent charm that does away with all standards of beauty.
In Nomad, Belgian choreographer and dancer Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui reveals a mosaic of features that are found in the desert. This desolate landscape is a metaphor for the final freedom, but also of the impossibility of surviving it. The dancer-nomads seem to be isolated in this environment, which may also be a representation of today's world, which, in the eyes of some minority groups, might seem like a dangerous place to live.
Piero Steiner, Andrés Corchero, Pep Ramis and Enric Ases have created and perform this poetic, tragicomic and dark work which invites audiences to reflect on the feelings that move us all: hope, deception, the need to fight or surrender, revolutionary dreams and relentless reality. A show about friendship, anger and tenderness in which four mature men show us the child, old man and lunatic they carry inside.
Four men with the same age, height and goal: searching for a common language that enables them to reach their audience directly.
In Baile de autor, all the constituents —lighting, sound, singing, guitar, music and dance— come to life and interact, in order to create a show that unifies the artist's two facets, as choreographer and bailaor [dancer]. Found within the same person are a director who dreams and a bailaor who dances. The result is a dance fantasy divided into various choreographies, combining to form a montage full of creativity. A dream that only the artist can imagine, but which everyone else can now see.
